  1. Was that a cross of Mr. T and Lloyd McClendon screaming obscenities?
  2. Veras has quite the neatly-groomed neckbeard.
  3. Is it too soon to think this team is going to challenge some strikeout records?
  4. Did anyone else get the email about Mobile Ticketing? Sounds harmless enough, so I suppose I will opt in.
  5. Pat Hughes just reminded me that Edwin Jackson is the #2 starter, so there is nothing to worry about.
  6. 2 at bats into the season, Lake looks awful.
  7. With Murphy being gone, does that also leave spot open for one of Kalish or Roberts?
  8. I would be shocked to see him sooner than mid-2015.
  9. Yeah, that was a terrible interview. She wants Olt to go to Iowa so he can play full time, as if that can't happen at the Major League level.
  10. Looks like the Padres radio feed is the best you're going to get for that one.
  11. According to the MLB.com radio broadcast, Vizcaino was hitting 96-98 with his fastball today. It sure would be a nice bonus if he can stay healthy.
  12. Wood will go #2 So I guess that means EJax 3rd, Hammel 4th, and ?? 5th (assuming Arrieta can't get enough work in to be ready) Rusin? Villanueva? McDonald? My vote would be Hendricks, but I doubt that will happen.
  13. If the Cubs believe that Olt is "fixed" and is a potential long term Major League player, is there any chance they send him back to AAA for a few months so he doesn't accumulate the service time? He would only need to stay down a few more weeks than Baez. With his age and the organizational depth at 3B, I don't expect they would send him to AAA if they believe he is ready, but I wouldn't put it past this front office to want to buy themselves another year. He's got 63 days of service time already. You'd have to hold him down half the year. My calculations were apparently a bit off.

  15. On any given day, this is a safe assumption.
  16. I can seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
  17. Baez HR, deep to LF.
  18. Is there an argument to be made for anyone outside of Thibs to win coach of the year?
